Elijah patted Stella's back gently and asked Fabian to help take care of their restless sister.
Then, Elijah walked up to Ralph.
He explained to Ralph everything that had just happened.
The more Ralph listened, the darker his face became. In the end, the chill emanating from his body was so obvious that no one present dare to look straight at him.
Ralph glanced at Richeal and said, "We will talk about that later."
Richeal's eyes darkened.
The reason why Jerry Bell had kept her and York at home was that he wanted them to become Lottie's helpers.
Unexpectedly, the confrontation between her and York had caused chaos, giving Steve such a good opportunity to take action.
If something really happened to Stella, she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.
Fear flashed across Richeal's heart. She said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry. I know that the enemy has been hiding in the dark, but I was not cautious enough and gave them the opportunity."
Lottie held Ralph's hand and said with a frown, "This has nothing to do with Richeal. It's all my fault."
Ralph reached out and flicked Lottie's forehead. "Of course you're wrong, but it's not a big deal. I'll punish you when I get back."
After his soft words to Lottie, he stared at the manager of the restaurant with dark eyes.
"I think you should give me a reasonable explanation, after all, your restaurant is a high-end restaurant. How can you put such a scum in?"
"Steve even tried to take the child away from the restaurant. If anything happens to my daughter, how can you compensate?"
The restaurant manager wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead guiltily. He came here only not long ago, and but it was not his first day in the business.
Of course, he also knew Mr. Chapman. He was a real influential figure who could not be offended.
"We are really sorry, this is all our fault."
"I don't want to hear your excuses. I'll find the person in charge."
The manager nodded and bowed, "I am the person in charge of the restaurant."
"Really? I want to buy this restaurant. Can you make the decision?"
The manager was speechless.
He quickly said, "I'll contact the manager now."
Then, he took out his mobile phone and called the manager to explain the situation.
The person on the other end of the line said something. Just as the manager was about to respond, a hand reached out and snatched his phone away.
The manager glared at the man, only to find that it was Ralph who snatched his phone.
He immediately lowered his head and did not dare to make a sound.
"I'm Ralph." Ralph said his name out rudely over the phone.
The people at the end of the call were silent for a moment.
Ralph chuckled.
"Lincoln, you look like a stray dog now."
After a while, someone finally spoke.
Sure enough, it was the gentle and pleasant voice of the man again. Lincoln smiled and retorted, "Don't talk nonsense. Are you enjoying the gifts I sent you?"
Lincoln admitted all the things that had happened to Ralph were his "masterpiece” and his tone was a bit leisurely.
To be honest, it had been a long time since the last time he felt so happy.
He felt comforted when he saw that the people around Ralph had all been punished.
"Just 'Tit for Tat'. It would be such an embarrassment for me to do nothing when you sent me such a gift?"
Ralph chuckled and said, "This restaurant should only be one of your strongholds, right? Then I'll accept it."
Ralph knew that this was all because of the stimulation just now. It would take a while for her patience to calm her down before she could return to her normal state.
He didn't say anything else and just persuaded her in a low voice, "It's all Lincoln's and Steve's fault. I'll handle it well. Believe me, okay?"
Ralph's words did not avoid the others. A hint of surprise flashed across Natalia's face when she heard that. She asked helplessly, "Uncle, hasn't Lincoln given up yet?"
When Ralph heard Natalia's voice, he suddenly remembered what Kayden was about to face. He could not help but nod and say, "It’s not only me that he want, but also Kayden. Kayden has been a little anxious recently."
Natalia widened her eyes. "What? Why didn't he tell me?"
"He dotes on you and doesn't want to annoy you," Ralph said. "But I think since you are already with Kayden, you should want to know more about him and maybe be with him."
Natalia suddenly nodded. "Of course."
She saw that Lottie and the others were preparing to go to the hospital. Although she also remembered the injury of Jessica, when she heard that Kayden was in trouble, she was a little flustered.
Ralph saw her worries and immediately said, "Do you want to find Kayden?"
"Yes!"
"I'll ask Sean to send you there." Ralph said, "Don't worry about Jessica. With us here, she won't get into trouble."
"Okay, thank you, uncle!"
After thanking Ralph, Natalia came forward to hug Lottie.
"Lottie, it's not your fault today. Don't think too much about it. Be good and wait for us to come back to you, okay?"
Lottie sniffed and didn't say anything.
Natalia had no time to say anything else and left with Sean.
When Ralph came over, he brought his bodyguards with him. At this time, he could let Steve be guarded. He left a few more people in the restaurant to deal with the follow-up, and the others were taken to the hospital by Ralph.
On the way, Lottie suddenly asked uneasily, "Shouldn't I tell Connie that Steve was beaten up like this?"
